Baby, do you understand me now,
Sometimes I feel a little mad,
But don't you know that no one alive
can always be an angel,
When things go wrong I seem to be bad,
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree,
With a joy that's hard to hide,
And sometimes it seems that all I have do is worry,
Then you're bound to see my other side,
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
If I seem edgy I want you to know,
That I never mean to take it out on you,
Life has it's problems and I get my share,
And that's one thing I never meant to do,
Because I love you.
Oh, Oh baby don't you know I'm human,
Have thoughts like any other one,
Sometimes I find myself long regretting,
Some foolish thing some little simple thing I've done,
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
